Should I tell you about how Tyce ran right out into the road right in front of an incoming truck? No, that one will make me look like a bad mom. Too late....I was weeding in my back yard when both boys made a beeline for the front yard through the partially cracked-open gate. As I followed them through the gate I realized Tyce hadn't stopped running and was going straight into the road. Luckily the huge truck coming around the corner had seen him and stopped. I ran to get him out of the way, but I guess that just further encouraged him to run faster. Let me tell ya, those little legs of his can move! When I finally caught up with him he was laughing so hard...I guess he thought it was funny. I flipflopped on whether I should yell, spank or hug him and opted for the hug that was a little to tight and a little too long. It felt nice to have him safe in my arms, but did little to relieve the sick ache that remained in my gut.
Wow! You are an amazing mom! Jennie, Jillian and TJ can attest to the fact that I would've chosen the more painful route!
